The Market house revamp started in 2023 is set to be finished soon.
A community and tourist hub is set to open in a Laois town at the end of this month.
Renovation works on Market House in Portarlington started in 2023 after the building came under a lease from the local authority.
Only one community group answered a public expression of interest to use the space, and is currently finalising an agreement to run the space alongside the local authority.
Independent Councillor Aidan Mullins says everything is almost finalised:
